Wishing you a Very Happy New Year too and long may your blog continue and prosper. Your posts are always worth reading and your photographs are superb – I just wish I had a bit more time to read all of them.

Love this round-up… I like how you included favorite picks by page views as well as your own opinion. And oh my gosh, I was reminded of so many beautiful treats you made– those pain au chocolats, or those sticky toffee cupcakes? Yum.
